Question

for the figure below, give the following.
(a) one pair of vertical angles
(b) one pair of angles that form a linear pair
(c) one pair of angles that are supplementary
(a) vertical angles: ∠ and ∠
(b) linear pair: ∠ and ∠
(c) supplementary angles: ∠ and ∠

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Vertical angles: Vertical angles are opposite angles formed by the intersection of two lines. In the given figure, \(\angle1\) and \(\angle3\) (or \(\angle2\) and \(\angle4\), \(\angle6\) and \(\angle8\), \(\angle5\) and \(\angle7\)) are vertical angles as they are non - adjacent and formed by the intersection of lines \(l\) and \(n\) (or \(m\) and \(n\)).
  • Linear pair: A linear pair of angles is a pair of adjacent angles whose non - common sides are opposite rays. \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) (or \(\angle2\) and \(\angle3\), \(\angle3\) and \(\angle4\), \(\angle4\) and \(\angle1\), \(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\), \(\angle6\) and \(\angle7\), \(\angle7\) and \(\angle8\), \(\angle8\) and \(\angle5\)) are linear pairs. For example, \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) share a common side and their non - common sides form a straight line.
  • Supplementary angles: Supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is \(180^{\circ}\). A linear pair of angles is always supplementary. Also, non - adjacent angles can be supplementary. For example, if we consider \(\angle1\) and \(\angle3\) (vertical angles, but if we assume some other relationships based on the figure's lines, we can also take non - linear pair supplementary angles. However, a safe choice is to take a linear pair as a linear pair is supplementary). So, using the linear pair \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) (or any other linear pair) for supplementary angles.

Answer:

(a) \(\angle1\) and \(\angle3\) (or other valid vertical angle pairs like \(\angle2\) and \(\angle4\), \(\angle6\) and \(\angle8\), \(\angle5\) and \(\angle7\))
(b) \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) (or other valid linear pairs like \(\angle2\) and \(\angle3\), \(\angle3\) and \(\angle4\), \(\angle4\) and \(\angle1\), \(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\), \(\angle6\) and \(\angle7\), \(\angle7\) and \(\angle8\), \(\angle8\) and \(\angle5\))
(c) \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) (or other valid supplementary angle pairs. Since a linear pair is supplementary, using the same linear pair as in part (b) is appropriate)
